You said the DoH recommends a second dose before age 4. What about kids older than 4 who have only had one dose? O_O Are they and/or adults who have only had one dose somehow more resistant to measles once past age 4, or is it simply too late for a second dose to work?
I guess what I'm asking is should I be making an appointment for the 4 of us to get boosters, or are we just screwed? :-\
ETA: I haven't checked our vaccination cards yet so I don't know if I should even be freaking out about this because at least some of us may have gotten 2 shots, but I'm thinking worst case scenario. I like to be prepared, you know. :)
